    mein freund, some of us prefer to focus on extracting the most material value out of these hypothetical objects, simply because we want to. it’s fun to imagine the possibilities with the infinite energy from the candle and the mug.

      material value

      I think that’s the point that they’re making: it’s supposed to be about which object of immense EMOTIONAL value would make people the happiest, and then a lot of people make it about their material value in stead.

      As much as I understand their disappointment, though, Lemmy of all places is so full of nerds and geeks (said with love as a geek myself) who know a lot about technical stuff that it was pretty much bound to happen…

        Yes, thank you :D (I mean, of course I’m exaggerating a bit by claiming I’m disappointed, it’s more of a… “conceptual” disappointment)

          I was in a band called Conceptual Disappointment. We had excellent stage design, but the music was mediocre at best.
